Best Place to Play Online Poker for US

Okay I am looking for a website to play poker. I am from the US. That is kind of hard for me now because of President George W Bush (thanks a lot, you goon) Anyways I use to play at Bodog and Full Tilt. They no longer use NETELLER. I do not mind using e checks but I really want a site that will deposit the money back into my checking account and not send me a paper check. Is there a site out there that will do that let you deposit with your checking account and when you cash out deposit the money in there for you. If there isn't which of the US poker sites do you recommend I play at? I also like betting on sports and playing roulette. Thank you for your time!

Bodog I know wont send cashouts to your bank account but I think full tilt might not sure. I think it is one of those things where it work some weeks and not others.

they have a page solely for poker rooms that accept us players, after checking that out, u better off asking the site if you have any questions.

Actually, one of the latest anti-gaming bills was sponsored by a Democrat. There's another thread on this board with a link.

Lord knows Dubya's had plenty of f-ups, but this one can't be blamed on him.

The best site is pokerstars because if you are willing to use the e-checks .Then you can cashout to your bank account through e-check.I have done the cashout through e-check it went through in 3 days ,again that 3 bussisness days not including hoildays and weekends.It works great but I'm with a big bank.So that could play as well to why I got it so quick.

i thought the latest win in kentucky has open up the doors for usa players

I cashed out $800 at pokerstars last week and although I have used echecks several times they took that option off the table.Im not sure why but I am not sure echecks is still an option for US residents.

Ultimatebet, I agree with. They lowered the deposit amount to $10. And they take US credit cards.

How does e-check work? Do they charge a fee?

The best place for US players really depends on the size of site you are looking for.

When I want to play a large site or find a game fast, I hit Ultimate Bet.

A great mid-sized site is Bodog, and I love tiny little Poker4Ever when I am having a bad day and want to own a few cheap SNGs.

i play alot of sites have tons downloaded ultlimate bet great for bad beats and getting lucky pokerstars is river mania site i beleive the best on right now is full tilt

open a ewallet express account its just like netteller works at bodog, if you are from the US then how do you use netteller? they closed all of our accounts years ago.

Can anyone tell me the easiest way for a U.S. player to make a a first deposit into carbon poker using my checking account? Are there any major differences between e-wallet and e-check. Do both of them allow U.S. player deposits into poker sites and does one have more costly deposit and withdrawl fees. Thanks

one big problem for money transfers into and out of poker/casino sites for USA players is the U.I.G.E.A. and their forceing of banks and credit card comp's to track and report transactions to/from online sites..the best I have found for avoiding bank/card prob's and "cleaning" your money transfers is Pic-club.com..you can deposit(buy shares) straight from checking /bank card,then transfer funds to/from the site you want that they support(they are spreading fast)and they have several options on how to recieve your withdrawls back from them.....check 'em out and if you agree send support of the sites you play at that don't have them as a option a request to add them.

does anyone know why the bodog site doesnt let you transfer funds to another player?

bodog is the best place for me to play. I have accounts at all of them and bodog is the most successful. U get a cash out in about 5 business days and it is in the form of a check.

Here's how it works for me. I think people can have different options depending on how long they've been a customer and such?

Pokerstars - Deposit and withdraw using echeck. Withdrawals show up in my bank account in about 2 days.

Fulltilt - Deposit via echeck but withdraw via paper check. Having a minimum withdrawal sucks, but hasn't been an issue for me *yet* :P. Last check took about two weeks.

Bodog - Deposit with check card. Withdrawal was sent by paper check via Fedex Express. Shipped overnight. Pretty nice.

Cake - Deposit with check card. Not withdrawn any yet but planning to use ewalletxpress (ugh at fees)

No, but i find that fulltilt and bodog and absolute will get ur check to u faster than most, i cashed for 400 a couple weeks ago on absolute and check was fedex and i got in about 4 days after process wich was a couple of days so a week total.

Yeah, on the topic of the min withdrawal, I was trying out a few different sites and deposited $50 in Full Tilt.

Well, eventually decided I preferred Pokerstars to Full Tilt and asked to withdraw my funds from Full Tilt. Well, at the time I was under $100 and it says to e-mail them about it. So I did. I've received about 4 e-mails back so far saying that U.S. customers cannot withdraw to a Visa, and I've replied about 4 times saying I know that and that I would like a paper check withdrawal.

One letter told me that I should just deposit enough to raise my account to $100 and then withdraw that. Granted, I'm sure that would work, but on principle I really hate that idea.

Getting rather annoying. Tried to sign up on Clicktopay but they're not taking new US accounts or something along those lines. Is there a better way that I should go about trying to get my money cashed out of FT?
